Words can't describe how much I adore Glasvegas' S/T debut album right now. I've been wearing the vinyl out almost every day, and I haven't tired of it at all. They've been proclaimed "The Best New Band In Britain" by NME and I can see why. With a thoroughly unique rock sound blending Joshua Tree [...]

Welcome to this year's first session of the MOG therapy sessions. This is where you can share everything that troubles, pleases, shames you, or all the above when it comes to musicians.I'll start. Hello, my name is Anna and I've been trying to fight my feelings for a long time, but I eventually caved. Resistance was futile, really. I'm referring to me and James Allan {singer, song-writer, and r...

Today, at Leeds, around 8:30 in the morning, snowflakes started falling. Luckily, I was awake to witness it. Now you may wonder what the big deal is. It's a big deal to me for two reasons. One is that I haven't seen any snow in over 2 years now. Secondly, despite this being a cold-related phenomenon, it always manages to warm up my heart. So I was just sitting on my bed, wrapped in my comforter...

Thursday is the new Sunday. Or I'll say anything to post this today.I found out about the cover from this blog. For some reason, I couldn't have a listen there, so I investigated myself, found it, and bought it {best 0.70 pence I ever spent}. It's wonderfully heart-breaking. Excellent balance between respecting a song and making it your own. Glasvegas' sonical fuzziness and full-of-tragedy voca...

I promise to haunt it for as long as I'm here, whether it's for shows, or usual good music nights. The stage room is of 400 capacity, and it was sold out.~ The crowd: UK, indie band, indie venue, you do the indie math ;P~ The band: To characterize where this ...

The talent bookers who call the shots on "The Late Show with David Letterman" went all MOGgy again, as rousing Scottish rockers Glasvegas made their American network television debut on Monday night with a roaring visit to Dave's stage. Although Glasvegas is not yet mainstreaming it in the States, they have been celebrated here at MOG by connoisseurs of clever, ear-wrenching goodness since way ...

Out of Glasgow, Scotland, Glasvegas are busily hammering together the Surf Pop sound of Jesus and Mary Chain colliding with Phil Spector. As yet un-signed, I think you may hear more of them next year....Check out this video: Daddy’s GoneAdd to My Profile | More Videos.http://www.myspace.com/glasvegas .glasvegas.net.

They call it ‘Glastonbury in the sun’, but in truth Benicassim bares little resemblance to Europe’s premier festival. For a start there’s apparently little too worry about on the weather front. Nestled along Spain’s east coast, Benicassim usually basks in constant sunshine. Mid-thirty degree heat marks the day and the festival’s 7pm to 7am running…

.http://www.mencapmusic.org.uk/.I know it was for charity, but after paying £44 ($75) for a ticket to see Glasvegas at Mencaps, Little Noise sessions, I was expecting more than a 20 minute set without a encore. It seems I was not the only one thinking this as I heard a number of people complaining on the way out.The only plus was that 'surprise' guests The Killers, only played 3 songs....Have a..
